The fingers of this hand with which I write- Through those infrequent smiles which fail to live, Can it be right to give what i can give, Is it so that life, gives life, that gives life. Sorrow has shut me safe in loves device Through the ashen greys, I shudder it off- Lift my heart up high as it on a loft, None of these thoughts are enough to suffice Yet, love, real love is beautiful indeed- I’ll never give your lock of hair away- So today, today, I will dream a day, My love is but a dribble, a mere bead. I lift my heart upwardly, solemnly The ashes at my feet behold and see. |

*sigh* Perfect title. So much that could be said about this piece. Your every word is as an inch upon the dagger which is thrust into the heart of the lover betrayed. And yet there is also hope in the spaces, the breaths, if you will... As though each moment holds something with twice as much hope as was given the moment before. Beautiful and breath-taking, you stole a few pieces of my broken heart with this poem. I loved it.  *add* (if you could only see how much room you take up in my library...) |
